I remember reading that skydivers always walk the earth with their eyes to the sky...Because there they have been and there they long to return.
I have a fascinating new friend in this course. His name is Surg Cdr A Bhardwaj and he has come from Delhi for this course. He is 48 yrs old and he has done a basic course with five jumps some six months ago. He's dying to do more but his wife( understandably , i should think) feels rather aprehensive about the light of her life jumping out of aircrafts. He loves his wife, and he loves skydiving. So he told her he was going to Raipur to do some recruitment medicals, and got into the flight for Vizag- one that goes via Raipur, naturally. He feels guilty about the furtiveness of it- he packed all his uniforms , stamps and the equipment he'd need for the recruitment medicals, then he packed the dungarees that he'd needfor the course when she wasn't looking but there's so much glee mixed with the guilt!! I couldn't stop laughing all day today. He says- "I hate lying to her, but how could I not come ??"

Hey..this is a cute story...
But what if Mrs. Bhardwaj reads it?? She could read your blog, isn't it?
Two things- one,I asked for Cdr Bhardwaj's permission before i posted this and two-I think she already knows;)
It really IS a cute story :)
